The Six Focal Points of Profound Instructions
By Paltrul Rinpoche


སྐྱིད་ན་མི་དགའ་སྡུག་ན་དགའ། །སྐྱིད་ན་ཉོན་མོངས་དུག་ལྔ་འབར།།
སྡུག་ན་སྔོན་གྱི་ལས་ངན་འཛད། །སྡུག་བསྔལ་བླ་མའི་ཐུགས་རྗེ་ཡིན།།
I would rather undergo suffering than be happy.
Happiness gives rise to five poisonous emotions.
Suffering will reduce my negative karma from the past.
Suffering represents the compassion of my Guru.

བསྟོད་ན་མི་དགའ་སྨད་ན་དགའ། །བསྟོད་ན་ང་རྒྱལ་ཁེངས་སེམས་ཆེ།།
སྨད་ན་རང་སྐྱོན་ཐེར་ལ་འབུད། །མི་ཁ་ལྷ་ཡི་ཕ་འབབ་ཡིན།།
I would rather be criticized than praised.
Praise leads to pride and egoism.
Criticism will starkly reveal my own flaws.
Malicious gossip is a precious gift from the divine.

མཐོ་ན་མི་དགའ་དམའ་ན་དགའ། །མཐོ་ན་ཕྲག་དོག་ང་རྒྱལ་སྐྱེ། །
དམའ་ན་བག་ཡངས་དགེ་སྦྱོར་འཕེལ། །དམན་ས་གོང་མའི་གདན་ས་ཡིན།།
I would rather be low than high.
High stature gives rise to jealousy and pride.
Low stature comes with freedom conducive for spiritual practice.
Inferiority is the seat of sublime masters.

འབྱོར་ན་མི་དགའ་རྒུད་ན་དགའ། །འབྱོར་ན་གསོག་སྲུང་སྡུག་བསྔལ་ཆེ།།
རྒུད་ན་དཀའ་སྤྱད་ལྷ་ཆོས་འགྲུབ། །སྤྲང་ལུས་ཆོས་པའི་གཏད་སོ་ཡིན།།
I would rather be poor than rich.
Wealth entails the suffering of hoarding and saving.
Poverty presents challenges to practice sublime dharma.
Poverty is the unfailing state for a spiritual person.


བྱིན་ན་མི་དགའ་འཕྲོག་ན་དགའ། །བྱིན་ན་ལན་ཆགས་འཁུར་པོ་འཕེལ།།
འཕྲོག་ན་ཚེ་རབས་བུ་ལོན་སོད། །ཆོག་ཤེས་འཕགས་པའི་སྤྱི་ནོར་ཡིན།།
I would rather be robed from than given to.
If given to, the burden of karmic debt increases.
If robed from, the karmic debt of many lifetimes is cleared.
Contentment is the supreme wealth of the sublime beings. 


གཉེན་ལ་མི་དགའ་དགྲ་ལ་དགའ། །གཉེན་གྱི་ཐར་ལམ་བར་དུ་གཅོད།།
དགྲ་བོ་བཟོད་པའི་ཡུལ་དུ་བྱེད། །རོ་སྙོམས་ཉམས་ལེན་གནད་འགགས་ཡིན།།
I would rather love my enemy than my relations,
Relations obstruct the path to liberation.
Enemies can be objects of my patience.
Equanimity is the essence of meditation practice. 


ཆོས་བཞིན་མཛད་ན་དེ་འདྲ་དགོས། །བློ་ཐག་ཆོད་ན་དེ་འདྲ་དགོས།།
རི་ཁྲོད་འཛིན་ན་དེ་འདྲ་དགོས། །རྒྱལ་ཁམས་འགྲིམ་ན་དེ་འདྲ་དགོས།།
གདམས་ཟབ་གནད་ཀྱིས་མདོ་འགགས་དྲུག །ཕ་གཅིག་བླ་མའི་ཞལ་རྒྱུན་ཡིན།།
If I wish to conduct according to dharma, I should be thus.
If I have made up my mind [for dharma], I should be thus.
If I abide in the solitudes, I should be thus.
If I wander in the world, I should be thus.
These six focal points of profound instructions
Are oral transmissions of my spiritual father.
